ABOUT THE AUTHOR

I am a children's book illustrator, working in a variety of media, but I mostly like to work with colored pencils. I have a Master's degree in Fine Art and Illustration and have had the honour of illustrating two published books.

I'm originally from the UK, but from 13 years old I have been living in Lithuania - this move has inspired me to create illustrations and stories to inspire the children of other emigrants. Through my work I hope to bring joy and comfort to young readers who are on their own life journey.
